[Wiki Loves Monuments] translations and English summaries

[Lodewijk]

Hi,

As explained on the page (if that isn't clear enough, please say so) the
notice will ge geotargeted on a country level. Narrower than that is
currently unfortunately not possible. This geotargeting determines which
link people will be sent to.

They will see the message in the language of their user interface, uselang
(if I understand correctly). For most people this will simply mean they see
it in the language of the Wikipedia they are visiting. So if you are
visiting the French Wikipedia anonymously and your user interface is thus
in French, you will get a French language invitation.

Kind regards,
Lodewijk
